Package: cluster-agents Version: 1:1.0.3-3.1 Severity: normal send_arp consumes all available FDs (one per packet sent), and then exits.
e.g. stracing: /usr/lib/heartbeat/send_arp -i 20 -r 512 -p /var/run/heartbeat/rsctmp/send_arp-192.168.42.189-eth1 eth1 192.168.42.189 auto 192.168.42.189 ffffffffffff Fails shortly before it would otherwise exit with: 16374 socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = -1 EMFILE (Too many open files) This seems to be because the libnet function libnet_get_hwaddr() results in the leak of one socket per ARP packet sent. Hard coding the MAC address (as a proof of concept) appears to fix the issue. Haven't tried on newer libnet versions. Given that send_arp sends the exact same pair of packets again, and again, the binary could just build the two necessary packets, and resend each alternately, I think?
